As reported Friday, journalists at Bloomberg News could see when clients last accessed their terminals and what broad categories of functions they used. Goldman Sachs had complained that a Bloomberg reporter was using the information to investigate if a Goldman employee had departed.

In the posting Monday, Winkler draws a distinction between this type of data and “important” customer data, which he says has not been compromised.

The Federal Reserve is looking into whether Bloomberg journalists tracked data about terminal usage by top Fed officials. The European Central Bank says it’s in close contact with Bloomberg.

1) Why all of a sudden can 4 groups come in and pitch redevelopment of the Coliseum when for almost a decade Charles Wang couldn’t get it done? What about environmental impact studies and all of the other roadblocks that Kate Murray put in front of this getting done?

2) Why do we want MSG out here on the Island. It is/was the home of the Islanders. I don’t want the Rangers minor league team or the Liberty. Let them play at the Garden or Radio City.

If anything, let Ratner win. He will keep some aspects of Long Island letting the Isles play 4 games out here. The Nets can expand their fan base.
